Events at the Guardian

Ada Lovelace was a C19th mathematician often credited with writing the first computer programme. To celebrate Ada Lovelace Day, the Guardian has invited 50 girls from London schools to spend time with the women who create our digital products. They will find out about careers in tech, have taster sessions on UX, product, data and coding as well as the chance to watch excerpts from the film CODE: Debugging the Gender Gap.

FunctionalJS is a meetup to learn about functional programming with JavaScript – whether that means using Underscore/Lodash, exploring currying and functional-reactive programming, or languages that compile to JavaScript to bring more functional tools to bear.
